    PES 2021 remains the best football experience, but that doesn't mean the game is good

    The analysis is the same as in 2020, as the game has hardly changed anything, and still lost some licenses of clubs and stadiums

    For those who play online the game is a huge frustration, with teams alternating smooth matches and others in which the team drags on the field

    AI errors are disgusting, defenders hitting heads, wrong domains in front of the area, wrong passes, totally disproportionate ball protection

    In addition, the referees seem to have no criteria, failing to give red cards in backs, and fouls without the slightest contact.

    The game options are the same as always, without any news

    In general, who has the previous version and does not play online, I recommend not buying this update

    Konami perhaps missed a beat and could have been a tad bit more generous by making this an even more budget-priced game than what it is being sold for to capture any FIFA players who are on the fence, but it is still worth the price of admission. If fluid, tactical and sublime football is what you are looking for then look no further than eFootball PES 2021 Season Update.

    eFootball PES 2021 Season Update on Xbox One should be overlooked by those who own PES 2020 because it’s not worth the hassle of starting all over again for a selection of kits and partially updated squads. On the other hand, the gameplay and the modes combined with the updates makes it slightly more alluring to newcomers who haven’t experienced any of it. Even then it’s not a must-have and you may be best picking up PES 2020 on the cheap.

    eFootball PES 2021 Season Update reissues the same, excellent game of last year with updated players and licenses. Seen the budget price, it's recommended to soccer lovers that didn't play the previous game, while it's hard to suggest it to fans who spent tens or thousands of hours on PES 2020.
